I fear you're rising to the bait Force10,any fool who had read all of yesterdays posts could only draw to one conclusion,Robtek is more than in his right to disagree,it is a free world.

i personally was surprised to see the La5 , because with that MG is leaving the scenario timeframe of the Battle of Moskau ( aka german operation Taifun and its soviet counteroffensive ).
So it will be again something from all but nothing complete , planesetwise ?! But this MMO thing is still somewhere behind the horizont.....

We will see when they will make the official announcement -that i really would have expected on june 22 , start of Barbarossa 41.

I'm happy because:

1. They are still working on patching the product

2. They have the motivation to get it right as the sequel depends on it in a big way

It is unfortunate that it's taking so long to fix but it seems that Luthier inherited a big mess that has taken big work to sort out. Given time all will come good.


Try multiplying any delivery estimates by 3 and feel the stress reduce.

Thanks for the info ...

18k copies actually a mega failure, ahead of big game developers considering 100k copies a failure ...

I've been analyzing that there is this patch is released or are just buying time?

To this amount of sales actually his interest in pleasing the audience is very small. If it exists!

Now I understand why they try so hard to divert attention to the BOM with screeshots and reports on the development of the sequel.

Where are we going to stop?

18k copies might be a failure if you're talking about an MMO or an FPS/RTS, but you must remember that this is neither. This is a high-fidelity WW2 flightsim, which is a market that's incredibly narrow and has a very small fanbase in general. Is 18k copies low? In raw numbers, yes, it is. Viewed in light of how few simmers on this level there actually is, it might not be all that low.

What I want to know, however, is where vgchartz gets their numbers from. I don't trust anything when it comes to third-party reportingsites for sales/subscribers, through long experience with MMO's.
